Incorrect estimated readings

    My smart meter has stopped sending accurate readings since last year, and estimated readings were used to calculate our monthly bills. However, after finally figuring out how to read the meter, I find the estimated readings higher than what we have actually used.
    Gas should be 2247 instead of 2373, and electricity should be 4367(day) and 826(night) instead of 4559 and 860. I have submitted the actual readings and I was wondering how this will be corrected? Do I get refunded for the overpaid amount or should I stop paying until the actual usage catch up with the estimated?

    Bests,
